Sales are held several times throughout the fall and winter, and at a few of our hosted tournaments. Our present coordinator will help the new parent volunteer to learn the ropes to ensure a smooth hand over when her term is up at the end of this year.Please contact Valerie Walker, Competitive Program Manager at titansmanager@gmail.com if you would like to volunteer for this role or if you would like more information.
